The Iowa DNR Bureau of Forestry's Mission is to help Iowans to expand and care for Iowa's over 3 million acres of trees and forests. We utilize professionally trained foresters and natural resource technicians to provide forestry assistance to private landowners; to sustainably manage our state forests; to operate state forest nurseries at costs of production; and to protect, utilize and enhance our forest for today and tomorrow. Please contact us to help care for your trees and forests in Iowa.
